Additional Insights

  • Self-casting will cause you to teleport in the direction of your team's fountain.
  • If you used Overwhelming Blink to teleport to a distance over the maximum range, you'll be teleported 4/5 of the maximum range instead.
  • This marvelous blink-enhancer significantly increases your hero's blink range, ensuring they can close the gap and initiate combat from a considerable distance. It's perfect for heroes who want to be the daring leaders on the battlefield, surprising foes with a touch of valor.
